DECEIT MRS. A. NJ. FAUNTLEROY,
The Valley Virginian. [volume] (Staunton, Va.) 1865-1895, 1887-01-06

Mrs. Logan finally secured one object of
her ambition, home where she could be
free from the rattle of street cars and the
incessant hum of voices-out from
the busy hustle of the city, where she
could see the sunshine, hear the crows
caws, the birds sing, and enjoy the fresh
breeze in the summer, and where she
could be happy with her family. But just
as sire thought her ideal of home had been
realized in came an unbidden guest and
threw dark, impenetrable shadow oyer
this imagined elysium. Death sundered
the dearest tie that bound her to the new
found pleasure, and blotted out the central
light that radiated the domestic circle.
Such are human calculations and air cas-
ties, ''All is vanity"

The entire production of pig iron in
the Southern States in 1886 was 712. 1856
tons. and only 10000 tons of this found
a market in the North. The year 1887
will give an output of not less than ,00o,-
600 tons, most of which will find market
in the States where manufactured. These
simple figures speak volumes for the in
crease of the iron industry in the South ,as
well as its growth in augmented wealth.
Northern capitalists are beginning to see
where the best returns can be procured,
and are coming here to help develop our
wonderful mineral resources.
Messrs Perry & Co., of Albany. N. Y,
have removed their stove factory to South
Pittsburg. Tenn. where they have pur-
chased thirty acres of land. The plant
will cover ten acres, and the other twenty
acres will be appropriated to dwellings for
the employees, of whom there will be
about five hundred. This is strong and
tangible testimony to the advantages of
the South for manufacturing purposes
Perry & Co. will practically have but little
competition in splendid market for
their manufactures and will make for
tune.
1t is understood that a compact has
been made between the Gar of Russia
and the Emperor of Germany. 1t pro-
vides that If Germany and France should
go to war. Russia is to be neutral, and
that il Russia and Austria should engage
in war, Germany will be neutral. This
arrangement would invite the Gar to in
wade and take possession of Bulgaria, and
thus remove the obstruction of the Bal
kan to an attack on Constantinople. Eng
land. Italy. Austria and France would be
forced into compact. by this move, and
one of the most terrific wars the world
has ever witnessed would be the final out

THIS Is the sixty eighth birthday of queen
Victoria, and in less than q month she will
celebrate the tittieth year OF her reigu-a
reign marked by truly wonderful develop
ment OF British power and wealth, by the
spread OF education among the people by the
rapid advance Of ali the sciences. In sll OF
this progress the part of the queen hiss been
comparatively insignificant, but when the in
fuence OF her example in family life Is con.
sidered 1t must be allowed that by her per.
sonal character, her devotion as wife and
mother, and her sympathetic womsnly
qualities, she has had All elevating and re-
timing influence upon the English people /;
who were sadly in need of 1t.
Her own devoted mother trained her care
fully and with ideas OF royalty not too eN.
alted for a constitutional sovereign, she has
succeeded In holding with ease snd tirmness
q sceptre that would have been wrenched
from the grasp OF a woman OF more strength
Of mind and will. She came to the throne q
blooming school girl, and the chivary OF a
nation vas aroused at the thought OF a second
"good queen Bess," but though her era sur
passes that OF Elizabeth, in its peaceful tr.
umphs, aud in the steady progress of science
and the arts the motherly Victoria will al
ways be held in strong contrast with the
courtly and masculine Elizabeth. She has
many small faults which grow more promi
nent as she ages, and historians can smuse
their future readers with samples OF her lit
ersry ventures ard the absurd severity of her
court etiquette. Her treatment of the beau.
tful Lady Flora Hastings, aud the story of

LANCASTER, MAY u. 1887.
The Marshal.

The president has settled, in an excellent
way, the long wrangle over the Eastern
Pennsylvania marshalship, by appointing
Andrew II. Dill to the place. No better
selection could have been made. Mr.. Dill
has long been a prominent figure in Demo.
cratic politics in the state and bears clean
reputation. lie is man of very decided
ability and would adorn more important
place than that of marshal. 1t is somewhat
Of surprise that he is willing to accept
It.; but in the country district in
which he lives, five thousand dollars a
year are not easily picked up in the prac-
tice of the law; and doubtless he feels, too,
as though he would like to move among
more stirring scenes. Mr.. Dill was once
the Democratic candidate for governor
and would have made very good one. He
lives outside the Eastern district, and his
selection, while decided compliment to
himself, is severe reflection upon the dis.
agreeing Democratic leaders of the East
who have not been able to unite in pre-.
senting to the president suitable candi.
date for the place. They have thrown
upon him the responsibility of max.
ing a selection himself, and he has
very justifably determined to take the
best man he could get wherever he could
find him; and he might have gone out of
the state entirely If he had not suited him.
self in it. Of course there are many men
in the Eastern district who would have
made good marshals, but the president did
not personally meet any one who filled the
bill Of requirements so well as Mr.. Dill. lie
has asbeenwaiting for an agreement among the
leaders and has said that he could not be
expected to make an appointment SO long
as they E-aSagreed. But when he came
s4IcrOss man who satisfied his own judg
ment, he was ready to act, and has done SC

Mr.. Josephs, who has long stood in the
front as Mr. Randall's candidate, never
had chance of appointment, because hi:
reputation was not clean enough. lie la.

cI1Gcon hoard q return judges, after The
plUoentation of the af1davits alleging
fraud, have decided 10 count the vote q
.originally presented and 70 take no &C.
count Of the sworn statements Of reputable
Republicans - to their votes.
And this was done after the committee
Of investigation, appointed by the board,
had reported that Mentzsr had received
seventy.one more votes than he was given
on the return. The committee found this
In the evidence Of those who cast their
votes for him. They did not report who
these votes had been given to, but they
were certainly maliciously taken from
Mentzer by election officers friendly
to Hartman. The return judges did
not desire to so declare, an accom-
modation evidently having been had
between the adherents Of Mentzer and
Hartman, and determination reached to
cover up the fraud; it is to be seen whether
it can thus be buried.
For this gross outrage upon the right Of
suffrage has grown beyond the Republican
party and has become the concern of the
whole people. Ii the voices of seventy.one
citizens may be stiled at primary elec.
tion and no one suffer, what must the har.
vest be for the future ? The crop of future
decentralization that is bound to grow from
this planting is something appalling to
consider.
The Republican party owes it to the fair
fame Of the county Of its abiding place to
purge itself of the vile charge that has been
made against its trusted agents, whose Of.
fense it has adopted by maintaining silence
regarding it. If there is not enough moral
stamina in the grand old party for this
work, let not the Republican Anti-Cor.
rupton association falter in the task. As
its president, John II. Lands, said in his
address to the Republican voters of Ian.
caster county "The Republican party
cannot afford to allow its nominees to lie
named by such methods any longer"
If the Republican party submits quietly
to this outrage, it dc serves to he spurned
by all decent citizens. For its own credit
and for the credit of the people Of the
county, it is bound to see that the guilty
| shall suffer.

| ihE miserable evasions OF the Examiner
In reference to the gross frauds perpetrsted
on the ballot box in the Sixth ward deserve
notice because of their sudscity. That jour.
nal says editorially "There have been no
ial-e counts, fraudulent returns or tsmpsr-
ing with the ballot box. No Immense sums
were placed In pools and corruption did not
have a carnival" In the same issue of the
paper in the news columns this may be
found:
The roll OF districts was then called and the
out interruption until the Sixth ward was
reached, when George Ulmsn, OF East Lam
peter, objected to its reception. In this ward
II Ii alleged that frauds were perpetrstsd in
counting the vote for prothonotsry. The re-
turn showed that MeniZsr had only recei we'd
